Roll Call 9/6/09

I Haven't been here for a while. How is everyone doing these days? I'm feeling soooooo much better. I quit my antidepressant a couple of months ago.
I'm grateful I had them to help me through one of the toughest times in my life but I'm also grateful to be off of them. I was afraid for a while that I wouldn't be able to stop taking them but so far so good.
Hopefully I'll be able to lose the weight I put on while on the meds. People tell me that if they worked I shouldn't mind the extra 20 pounds but after working so hard to lose 70 pounds the thought of gaining them back was making me even more depressed. I feel so free!!!

I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
